Been a member for several years but not posted for a long time although I've been lurking in the background and enjoying your posts . Thought it was about time I said 'hello' again.

Welcome Chrishappy! If you click on the blue outlined 'Acronyms' box above a thread, you will find the list of basic abbreviations. You will soon find yourself using them too.
